Oh the joys of this still being in test phase.

TV 1 + TV 2 keep turning on and off AC3 streams. These are full 5.1
according to my amp.

The rest of the channels are HE-AAC except for one of the versions of TVNZ
Sports Extra which is still MP2.

So Craig - What spec CPU are you running, and are TV One and TV 2 playing
back OK for video?
